Centre for Financial Accountability (CFA) in collaboration with The Wire (as the media partner), Sambhaavnaa Institute & Progressive International, are co-organising a series of webinars conceived to better understand the global moment we are all inhabiting. Given that the geopolitical shifts today have direct bearing on the way finance and economy is getting reshaped, it is imperative that we address the (Republican) elephant in the room, that is Trump.
The eight part webinar series titled The Political Economy of the Trump Era: Challenges & Opportunities of the Shifting World Order would have the following thematic conversations:
The Tariff Wars: India & the Global South in a Fragmenting System of World Trade
Time of Monsters: Fascism and the Fusion of the State and the Corporation
International Financial Institutions Under Trump: Perspectives from India and the Global South
The Great Extinction: Trump & The Threat of Climate/Environmental Collapse
Standing Up to the Empire: Reclaiming Southern Multilateralism from the Unipolar System
Trump Pulls the Plug: The Global Tax Negotiations and the Struggle Against Inequality
Imperialism in the Multipolar World: Resistance from India and the Global South
Gags to Gaza: Standing up to the Neo-fascist Onslaught in India & the World
Date: 17th May to 11th June 2025
Time: 4 PM IST | Every Saturday and Wednesday
*Detailed schedule and information about the panel and keynote will be shared through email upon registration.
